So taken aback was I by the vantage from the tower of my own land’s confines that I gripped hard the balustrade to stop my moorless soul from taking flight
Trees either side of me Like I’m moving sweetly, fleetly, like a carried leaf Down the Anduin If you are born to be King then the lakelady will hand you it An anvil’s weight this unnamed crown leadlike with light-leaking jewels Fine rooms and suites, sweet things Lingering tastes, eyries; high peaks and tubular towers…

Taking so many drugs that my personality becomes a mistake I can alter with an eraser.
Like an eye an hour before sleep I become divorced from Me Bleeding reasons onto the leaves Last night again that same dream, Parisian Lost in a maze, samefaced streets, ablaze lamplight on rain sleekness Walking shamefaced, backstreets route to her place Write something true: Left bright-eyed, came home bereft in a torn and muddy…
